摘要
The critical current (I-c) of dense Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x (Bi-2212) round wires with Ag-alloy matrices was measured as a function of axial applied strain (epsilon(a)), to determine whether the I-c(epsilon(a)) behavior is improved in comparison to wires with a large (30-50%) void fraction in the Bi-2212 filaments. Wires were reacted at approximately 890 degrees C under a 1% O-2 in Ar gas mixture at 100 bar pressure to densify the Bi-2212 fraction during the partial melt reaction. After measurement of the I-c at 4.2 K and 5 T at Florida State University, wire sections were sent to Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory where I-c(epsilon(a)) was measured at 4.2 K at 5 and 15 T using a U-shaped bending spring. We found that I-c(epsilon(a)) has a 0.3% wide linear reversible strain range. An unexpected result is that the width of this reversible range seems comparable to that found for porous samples reacted at only 1 bar, apparently negating an earlier plausible supposition that fuller density samples would be more resilient.
